Hurr durr landlords bad, let me live on your property for a penny even though you had to spend money to create the acquire the property in the first place!!
Do you use the sidewalk without paying a fee to a private entity that helped develop it?
Housing doesn’t have to be a scarcity market. I don’t anyone is complaining about people who own a house, but people are complaining about companies and individuals who own 10,000 homes.
Ummm more like “scalper buys ticket first and now you can’t, then charges way more for it.” And “landlord buys houses first, now you can’t, and they charge more to live in it than you would have if you were able to buy it yourself.”
So everyones labor should be free for you to take then? How are you not the parasite for wanting others to build, maintain and fund a place for you to live?
I can think of two reasons but I doubt this is exhaustive…
Most people don’t have enough capital to make the down payment. When one person has no savings, they’re irresponsible. When most people have no savings, it’s poorly designed policy.
In addition, the option of being able to rent out a house increases its value, which makes mortgages more expensive than they otherwise would be (with no rents).
🏆 Here is your award for most disingenuous comment! Congratulations for your total lack of ability to understand that others have different Material Conditions than yourself!
Then the problem is not that the practice of renting exists, but wealth inequality. Which we fully agree on, especially since several mechanisms are at work that further the gap between the rich and the poor. These all should be addressed.
I never said that bahaha Gotta love being called a parasite for not wanting to have your blood sucked by a leech. OMG THAT LEECH DID WORK TO ATTACH ITSELF AND YOU WANT TO REMOVE IT?!? YOU JUST WANT TO KEEP ALL YOUR BLOOD?!? SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING A LEECH WOULD SAY, SUS AF…

They’re pretty much the same
Not all landlords are scumbags, but there’s a cliche for a reason.
How about we compromise on paying them the cost of entering the land into production. Just cut out the “unearned income”.
Nobody creates real estate, unless you’re talking about those artificial islands in Dubai.
A penny is too much.

People should pay mortgages, not rent, you pillock.
What’s holding you back from taking a loan and paying mortgage instead of rent? Risk aversion?

Bad credit and no money
